Normal read. All participating subdisks * are up, and the transfer can be made * directly to the user buffer. The bounds * of the transfer are described by * m.dataoffset and m.datalen. We have * already calculated m.initoffset and * m.initlen, which define the parameters * for the first data block. * * 2. Recovery read. One participating * subdisk is down. To recover data, all * the other subdisks, including the parity * subdisk, must be read. The data is * recovered by exclusive-oring all the * other blocks. The bounds of the * transfer are described by m.groupoffset * and m.grouplen. * * 3. A read request may request reading both * available data (normal read) and * non-available data (recovery read). * This can be a problem if the address * ranges of the two reads do not coincide: * in this case, the normal read needs to * be extended to cover the address range * of the recovery read, and must thus be * performed out of malloced memory. * * 4. Normal write. All the participating * subdisks are up. The bounds of the * transfer are described by m.dataoffset * and m.datalen. Since these values * differ for each block, we calculate the * bounds for the parity block * independently as the maximum of the * individual blocks and store these values * in m.writeoffset and m.writelen. This * write proceeds in four phases: * * i. Read the old contents of each block * and the parity block. * ii. ``Remove'' the old contents from * the parity block with exclusive or. * iii. ``Insert'' the new contents of the * block in the parity block, again * with exclusive or. * * iv. Write the new contents of the data * blocks and the parity block. The data * block transfers can be made directly from * the user buffer. * * 5. Degraded write where the data block is * not available. The bounds of the * transfer are described by m.groupoffset * and m.grouplen. This requires the * following steps: * * i. Read in all the other data blocks, * excluding the parity block. * * ii. Recreate the parity block from the * other data blocks and the data to be * written. * * iii. Write the parity block. * * 6. Parityless write, a write where the * parity block is not available. This is * in fact the simplest: just write the * data blocks. This can proceed directly * from the user buffer. The bounds of the * transfer are described by m.dataoffset * and m.datalen. * * 7. Combination of degraded data block write * and normal write. In this case the * address ranges of the reads may also * need to be extended to cover all * participating blocks. * * All requests in a group transfer transfer * the same address range relative to their * subdisk. The individual transfers may * vary, but since our group of requests is * all in a single slice, we can define a * range in which they all fall. * * In the following code section, we determine * which kind of transfer we will perform. If * there is a group transfer, we also decide * its bounds relative to the subdisks. At * the end, we have the following values: * * m.flags indicates the kinds of transfers * we will perform. * m.initoffset indicates the offset of the * beginning of any data operation relative * to the beginning of the stripe base. * m.initlen specifies the length of any data * operation. * m.dataoffset contains the same value as * m.initoffset. * m.datalen contains the same value as * m.initlen. Initially dataoffset and * datalen describe the parameters for the * first data block; while building the data * block requests, they are updated for each * block. * m.groupoffset indicates the offset of any * group operation relative to the beginning * of the stripe base. * m.grouplen specifies the length of any * group operation. * m.writeoffset indicates the offset of a * normal write relative to the beginning of * the stripe base. This value differs from * m.dataoffset in that it applies to the * entire operation, and not just the first * block. * m.writelen specifies the total span of a * normal write operation. writeoffset and * writelen are used to define the parity * block. */ m.groupoffset = 0; /* assume no group... */ m.grouplen = 0; /* until we know we have one */ m.writeoffset = m.initoffset; /* start offset of transfer */ m.writelen = 0; /* nothing to write yet */ m.flags = 0; /* no flags yet */ rsectors = m.stripesectors; /* remaining sectors to examine */ m.dataoffset = m.initoffset; /* start at the beginning of the transfer */ m.datalen = m.initlen; if (m.sdcount > 1) { plex->multiblock++; /* more than one block for the request */ /* * If we have two transfers that don't overlap, * (one at the end of the first block, the other * at the beginning of the second block), * it's cheaper to split them. */ if (rsectors < plex->stripesize) { m.sdcount = 1; /* just one subdisk */ m.stripesectors = m.initlen; /* and just this many sectors */ rsectors = m.initlen; /* and in the loop counter */ } } if (SD[plex->sdnos[m.psdno]].state < sd_reborn) /* is our parity subdisk down? */ m.badsdno = m.psdno; /* note that it's down */ if (bp->b_flags & B_READ) { /* read operation */ for (mysdno = m.firstsdno; rsectors > 0; mysdno++) { if (mysdno == m.psdno) /* ignore parity on read */ mysdno++; if (mysdno == plex->subdisks) /* wraparound */ mysdno = 0; if (mysdno == m.psdno) /* parity, */ mysdno++; /* we've given already */ if (SD[plex->sdnos[mysdno]].state < sd_reborn) { /* got a bad subdisk, */ if (m.badsdno >= 0) /* we had one already, */ return REQUEST_DOWN; /* we can't take a second */ m.badsdno = mysdno; /* got the first */ m.groupoffset = m.dataoffset; /* define the bounds */ m.grouplen = m.datalen; m.flags |= XFR_RECOVERY_READ; /* we need recovery */ plex->recovered_reads++; /* count another one */ } else m.flags |= XFR_NORMAL_READ; /* normal read */ /* Update the pointers for the next block */ m.dataoffset = 0; /* back to the start of the stripe */ rsectors -= m.datalen; /* remaining sectors to examine */ m.datalen = min(rsectors, plex->stripesize); /* amount that will fit in this block */ } } else { /* write operation */ for (mysdno = m.firstsdno; rsectors > 0; mysdno++) { if (mysdno == m.psdno) /* parity stripe, we've dealt with that */ mysdno++; if (mysdno == plex->subdisks) /* wraparound */ mysdno = 0; if (mysdno == m.psdno) /* parity, */ mysdno++; /* we've given already */ sd = &SD[plex->sdnos[mysdno]]; if (sd->state != sd_up) { enum requeststatus s; s = checksdstate(sd, rq, *diskaddr, diskend); /* do we need to change state? */ if (s && (m.badsdno >= 0)) { /* second bad disk, */ int sdno; /* * If the parity disk is down, there's * no recovery.
